Alright so just felt like gettin a few random things outta my system, so w/e. I'm very unmotivated as far as school, but I'll try my best...just a few more months of grinndin...
Very motivated to play poker so hopefully soon enough my friend will ship me that $1k on FTP and i'll just GRIND with my rakeback. I seriously think that I can just play every few days for maybe 2 hour sessions or so, and even be entertained at the smallish stakes. I'll definitely try my best to avoid tilt and do the stop-loss etc. To be honest I'm fully confident in earning back a roll, it's seriously just a matter of time, patience, runnin good, and possibly finding a stake or not.
BTW, saw Munich today. Quite a good movie, very well-written and directed. Good convincing actors, and was pleasantly surprised to see Daniel Craig in it (the new Bond). Good action and convincing effects as well. The movie for sure was artistic, which was where a lot of my liking for it came from. I'd give it an 8/10.
Watching the 2007 WSOP ME now, and see that Minieri is making some good moves, sometimes successful, sometimes he looks like a donk, but damn I thought my chip variance was sick...! It's too bad Dag Martin Mikkelson (dmmikel) went down in this tourney because he was SO fat with chips and from what I can tell, playing well. He'd def be bringing it home for internet players if he had won, but Jerry Yang won, and he's not a bad player by any means. 10x as good as Jamie Gold, tho Jamie's getting better too haha.
Wow I would LOOVE to close this blog with an episode from HSP last nite where hellmuth limp/calls preflop with 44 vs a guy's 23s, flop comes T34 two hearts, hellmuth checks (sammy also called prelfop with JTo). Preflop raiser cbets $30k into the $40k, hellmuth minraise to $60k, sammy thinks a while and folds (shocking sammy folds anything especially since he had the backdoor J high flush draw lool). Other dude shoves pretty quickly with 3 high and no FE, brick, brick, and Hellmuth scoops and breaks even for his time on High stakes Poker. Let's goo Hellmuth! To be honest seriously the live tourney players play pretty badly, limp/calling all the time, check/minraising, etc. Live cash play is EZ. Tho I have some respect for some live tourney players, such as Scotty Nguyen, who plays solidly but also knows when to make moves. I dont' see him coldcalling raises with A9o or defending blinds with like J9o, etc.
Hoping to definitely start playing some poker soon and just grinding small stakes and earning rakeback- the way I figure is if I grind .50/1+ for a month, perhaps 24 hours/month, I can get ~$1k. $12k/ year as long as I don't go broke and hopefully grinding a roll together would make me quite happy. I'd say definitely before I start my actual first year of real college (not community college like now) I should have a nice roll to hopefully grind out some nice party and spending $$ (if i slowly accumulate rb and dont go broke)
Will try to finish some schoolwork now, community college blows... lol Will have to do project tomorrow :-(
